Hello everybody,
I've just uploaded version 3.10.0 to the website. Since I didn't have
time to pack a release for quite a while there are lots of new features
in there. I'll just quote the ChangeLog:
-- 8< --
2006-07-09, Version 3.10.0
* The `disk' plugin has been ported to Darwin.
* The `battery' plugin should work on many Apple computers now.
* The `traffic' plugin can now ignore certain interfaces. Also,
statistics for sent/received packets and errors have been
added.
* A plugin to monitor APC UPSes using `apcupsd' has been added.
Thanks to Anthony Gialluca for contributing this plugin and
providing me with a test environment :)
* A plugin for moniroting an NTP instance and the local clock
drift has been added.

And there is more news: Sebastians collectd package has been accepted to
Debian (*), so there will be official Debian packages in a (hopefully)
short while. In the near future I'll simply provide backports for Debian
Sarge rather than building own packages. I still built a Debian Sid
package for this release, but if the Debian packages are accepted and on
the mirrors within a reasonable time (let's say a week or so) I might
end up not doing this either..
As always: Any bugreports, suggestions and comments are very welcome :)
Regards,
-octo
(*) I wonder why Sebastian hasn't sent an email himself yet. I hope he
forgives me spoiling this news.. ;) Thank you very much for
packaging this :)

octo:
Merged addition to ChangeLog back from tags/collectd-3.9.0
Set object options to the default values, when creating the object. This may have failed the `ping' plugins initialization..
Only include `dict_get_double' when using IOKit or CoreFoundation. This caused a build on Linux to fail before..
Simple fix for the swap plugin. This needs to go into 3.9.1
Corrected the define's in the apache plugin so it'll build without libcurl.
Disabled all `kstat' code in the nfs plugin. This failed builds on Solaris..
Fix for this:
Check for `nanosleep'. If not found, look for `librt'. Abort if `nanosleep' is missing.
Fix this:
Cast pointer arithmetics to make weird gcc versions happy.
Only link against libraries that are needed. E.g., don't link evey plugin to `libkstat' but only those who actually use it.
Corrected inclusion of `sys/swap.h'.
Fix this (a pointer was compared with an integer):
Fix this (need to cast void-pointer to function-pointer to make Sun-cc happy):
Link liboping with `libsocket' if it's needed for `socket' to work.
Added `contrib/add_rra.sh' which allows to add an very detailed RRA to old RRD files.
Added `contrib/README'
Added the config option `cacert' to the `apache' plugin. This allows to specify a file holding the CA Certificate. This is needed for connecting to SSL hosts that use self-signed certificates.
Added information about the new `cacert' option in the `apache' plugin to `collectd.conf(5)'.
Changed the `traffic' plugin to generate `packets' and `errors' statistics, too.
Added RRD files of the `apache' plugin to `collectd(1)'
Added the RRD files of the `apple_sensors' plugin to `collectd(1)'
Added RRD file of the `cpufreq' plugin to `collectd(1)'
Added the RRD files of the `wireless' plugin to `collectd(1)'
Added the RRD files `if_packets' and `if_errors' to `collectd(1)'.
Renamed the new RRD files: Move the files in a subdirectory when a new major version is about to be released. For now, don't do it to be more consistent..
Changed the fixed heartbeat of `25' with the string `HEARTBEAT' in trunk/src/collectd.pod
Added `package' and `errors' counter for libkstat to the `traffic' plugin.
Applied patch by Peter Holik to work with arbitary length device names (when using the `KERNEL_LINUX' read method).
A first port of the `swap' plugin to Mach/Mac OS X
Corrected/removed fixme-note.
Changed the build system to
Added a config option to the traffic plugin to ignore certain interfaces. Thanks to Sune Marcher for the patch.
Updated ChangeLog; also added version 3.9.1
Removed `trunk/src/libping/', since it's obsolete.
Fixed the nasty bug in the ping plugin: The sequence wasn't checked correctly. Argh.
Merged changelog entries from versions 3.8.5 and 3.9.1
Merged stuff from branches/collectd-3.9: After release 3.9.2 the ChangeLog additions were not copied..
Added `apcups.c' by Anthony Gialluca <tonyabg at charter.net>
Added the apcups plugin to the build system.
src/apcups.c:
apcups.c:
Cleaned up the apcups plugin some more..
Fixed miscellaneous small stuff..
Copied trunk to `branches/apcups'
branches/apcups/src/apcups.c:
Changed the network code to use `getaddrinfo' rather than the old style name resolution.
Simplified the `submit' and `write' functions of the `apcups' plugin. Also changed the DS definitions.
Rearranged the functions in the `apcups' plugin.
Renamed `host' and `port' to `global_host' and `global_port' to distinguish between the global and the local variables.
Removed all the conflicts from the apcups-plugin again.
apcups.c: Closed run-away comment. Sorry.
Define the `APCMAIN' define in any way. Set it to zero if building as a plugin (default).
Changed the apcups plugin to keep the socket open.
Changed the build-system to only use the getifaddrs-code under Linux, if the user specifically said to do so.
traffic plugin: Store the packet- and error-counter for the proc interface, too.
Build the `submit_{packages,errors}' functions when the proc interface is used..
Added the `Ignore' config option of the `traffic' plugin to the collectd.conf(5) manpage.
Created the `ntpd' branch.
Copied `ntp-4.2.0a+stable/include/ntp_request.h' to the source directory.
hddtemp.c: Don't try other sockets if one could be opened..
Added `sread' and `swrite': `read' and `write' like functions that assure that all data is written or fail completely..
First (incomplete) code for querying an ntpd.
Added `ntp_{types,machine}.h' from the NTPd distribution.
ntpd.c: Fixed most syntax errors.. Removed the inclusion of `ntp_request.h' since it has too many dependencies.
Added a call to `poll(2)' to the ntpd plugin. Also added some needed time calculation for the timeout.
ntpd branch: Fixed misspelled variable name in common.h.
ntpd branch: The ntpd-plugin compiles and gets _some_ values. Doesn't entirely work yet, though.
ntpd branch: Added some debug messages to the ntpd plugin. Also changed it to request `kern_info' rather than `sys_info'. `peer_stats' or something is still to be done.
ntpd branch: The ntpd plugin now requests the `peer info summary' but doesn't record it yet.
ntpd branch: Added `frequency_offset' and `time_offset' to `collection.cgi'
ntpd branch: Added the reverse-lookup for both, IPv4 and IPv6 to the ntpd plugin.
ntpd branch: Added config-code to the ntpd plugin, so one can configure the host and port to use/query.
ntpd branch: The ntpd plugin now resolves the `127.127.$id.*' addresses to the reference-clock name.
ntpd branch: Added the collection of the `time_dispersion' and `delay' values to the ntpd plugin.
ntpd branch: Added `time_dispersion' and `delay' to the `collection.cgi' Also, changed `time_offset' to use `Seconds' and let RRDTool scale that to milli- or micro-seconds.
ntpd branch: Removed the headerfiles that were copied from the NTPd distribution: They are not used (anymore).
ntpd branch: Close the ntpd-socket if a read or write failes (with something else then EAGAIN or EINTR).
octo at leeloo:~/collectd $ svn merge -r773:777 branches/collectd-3.9 trunk

memory plugin: MACH_VM_STATISTICS_H -> HAVE_MACH_VM_STATISTICS_H
freebsd branch: memory plugin: Quick bugfix. Works under FreeBSD now.
freebsd branch: memory plugin: Use `errno', not the return value of `sysctlbyname', as argument to `strerror'.
freebsd branch: swap plugin: Use `sysctlnametomib' to query the mib if we don't know it.
freebsd branch: memory plugin: Include "utils_debug.h" because DBG is being used.
freebsd branch: swap plugin: Added the possibility to use `libkvm' to collect swap statistics.
